Please!!!! I need help from everybody!!! I need to make a decision, I'm between choosing Dr. Glenn Jelks or Dr. Mark Codner, the problem is that I had a blepharoplasty, but the surgeon left my lower eyelids pull down, with a sad expression and a had a horrible scar on the edge of the eyelid, a mess!! so I need to find someone really really good at it to fix what this stupid doctor did, the problem is that I dont live in US, so I have to schedule my surgery before I get to know the doctor, thats why I really need your advice, Thank you all!!!

I've heard some bad things about Jelks, and good about Codner. Just what I've heard from reading these boards for the bast two years.

Hi, I think I can help you. I have been to Dr. Codner's office although I did not have surgery with him. The team at Paces Plastic Surgery in Atlanta is great. I live in Miami, and I have flown there many times. I had a cheek lift with Dr. Hester of the same office. I was happy with the procedure except for the fact that my lower eyelids did not heal properly on both eyes. Dr. Hester attempted a few revisions until he suggested his associate Clinton McCord, MD of the same office. He is awesome. I am extremely happy, and trust me...I've been through a lot with the drooping lower eyelid thing. You must, however, make it super clear regarding what you hope for. Good Luck.
